Yeast dough buns in the oven - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

While all-purpose flour works best for a classic soft bun, you can experiment with bread flour for a chewier texture. Keep in mind you might need to adjust the hydration slightly.
Store cooled buns in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the freezer for longer storage. For best results, wrap them individually before freezing.
Yes! You can prepare the dough through step 6, then refrigerate the shaped buns (covered) overnight. Let them warm up at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking. You may need to increase the final proofing time.
These buns are incredibly versatile! Enjoy them with soups, stews, sandwiches, or simply with butter and jam. They also make great burger buns.
Yes, freeze the buns after they have fully cooled. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer bag. They can last for up to 2-3 months in the freezer. Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through.
